Music can be compared to a range of colours; some of them match, others are embellished by juxtaposition and yet others quite simply clash. Rita Marcotulli and Andy Sheppard form an artistic duo that brings particularly pleasing results, playing their “colour” range in perfect harmony together. The pair met through their shared passion for François Truffaut. Their friendship was cemented further when Andy took part in Rita’s album Koiné, and finally they’ve perfected their musical partnership through the numerous live concerts they’ve given together throughout Europe. On the edge of a perfect moment stems from the same idiom the two partners share that relies heavily on melody with another strong influence from electronic music which fascinates them both. Hence their constant search for new sounds by electronic treatment of acoustic effects; this is something they’ve developed themselves, but which isn’t necessarily valid for other instruments. The on-going, open-ended project depends mainly on the live context. This album of original compositions (with two new versions of old ones) is part of it; it bears the stamp of a pair personifying the art of the duo.
